IT continues to work diligently to maintain a seamless infrastructure for all of Troy's needs. We hope you enjoy reading the IT Update, expect an exciting new year!

During the winter break, a flurry of IT activity occurred. During the period, IT staff work a total of 1017 hours to upgrade core infrastructure.

In the past six months, much has changed. New identity management infrastructure, new collaborative systems, new email product, updated desktop productivity software highlight the list of major efforts.

On 8 April 2014, Microsoft will cease support for Windows XP and Office 2003.

Troy University maintains an immense inventory of computing devices. During a recent audit, only a fraction of our devices continue to operate these dated products.

Please review your Windows operating system and Office versions.

For most, who operate the Windows XP operating system, an upgrade to a newer version is not possible, due to the age of the hardware. Below, is a link to updated pricing for Troy’s most common end-user devices.

On 8 April 2014, Troy University will cease support of these products as well. Due to the lack of support from Microsoft, computers with the obsolete software will not be allowed to access the Troy University network due to inherent security vulnerabilities.

If you require assistance with review of your hardware or software, please send an email message with your contact information to xphelp@troy.edu.
